description

Browse for
mDNS/DNS-SD network services and browsing domains using the
Avahi daemon.

options

Specify a
DNS-SD service type (e.g. _http._tcp) to browse for on the
command line, or -a to browse for all available
service types. Items that appear on the network are prefixed
with "+", items that disappear are prefixed with
"-". If --resolve is passed items that are
resolved are prefixed with "=".
-a | --all

Browse for all service types
registered on the LAN, not just the one specified on the
command line.

-D |
--browse-domains

Browse for browsing domains
instead for services. avahi-browse-domains is equivalent to
avahi-browse --browse-domains

-d | --domain=DOMAIN

Browse in the specified domain.
If omitted avahi-browse will browse in the default browsing
domain (usually .local)

-v | --verbose

Enable verbose mode.

-t | --terminate

Terminate after dumping a more
or less complete list.

-c | --cache

Terminate after dumping all
entries available in the cache.

-l | --ignore-local

Ignore local services, show
only remote services.

-r | --resolve

Automatically resolve services
found.

-f | --no-fail

Don’t fail if the daemon
is not found running. Instead, wait until it appears. If it
disconnects, try to reconnect.

-p | --parsable

Make output easily parsable for
usage in scripts. If enabled fields are separated by
semicolons (;), service names are escaped. It is recommended
to combine this with --no-db-lookup.
